Bindable layouts, one of my contributions to the Xamarin.Forms framework

Xamarin, Microsoft-owned for few years now, asked me to write on their blog a guest post about bindable layouts , one of my contributions to the Xamarin Forms framework, an awesome open-source cross-platform framework for developing mobile apps. After finishing the implementation, I submitted a pull-request for it and, lo and behold, the Xamarin.Forms team accepted it! Contributing to a large framework as Xamarin.Forms can take lot of blood and sweat sometimes but it’s a lot of fun. Here’s the blog post I wrote on Xamarin's blog which describes the bindable layouts feature: https://blog.xamarin.com/xamarin-forms-3-5-a-little-bindable-love/ ...just posted on the Xamarin Blog, Andrei Nitescu shares one of his contributions to Xamarin.Forms, the bindable layout. Starting with Xamarin.Forms 3.5.0 pre2, we can use the BindableLayout set of attached properties on any Layout<T> view.
